She was ecstatic because she had a DNA test which confirmed the mystery patient was, in fact, her long-lost husband, EJ. However, following her joy, Sami will be thrown into a panic, as she realizes he is now missing on the Wednesday, Nov. 7 episode of “Days of Our Lives.”

After getting DNA from Susan (Stacy Haiduk) by using the hair on her Marlena doll, Sami (Alison Sweeney) was able to confirm that the man she pulled out of the warehouse fire was, in fact, EJ, brought back to life. However, because of the burns he suffered in the fire, and the fact that she has no idea if he’ll even remember her to begin with, she has wanted to keep the news to herself, meaning no one in EJ’s family knows about his being alive—including Susan.

However, after Susan had a premonition about EJ still being alive, and learned from Victor (John Aniston) that he was in Salem hospital, she arrived to see her son and became furious that Sami was trying to keep him from her. Following her visit there, Sami returned to the room—only to discover that EJ was gone. Now, the race will be on for her to find her husband again, though it may not take long for her to realize what happened.

“DOOL” spoilers tease that Paul (Christopher Sean) and Will (Chandler Massey) have a run-in with Susan. If they see her and learn that she has EJ, Will is going to let his mother know. Once she realizes Susan knows EJ is alive, it will become a massive battle once again because Sami will not relent when it comes to getting her husband back.

However, Susan won’t be the only challenge she may face, because news of EJ’s coming back from the dead is going to continue to spread—and will arrive on the doorstep of none other than Stefan (Tyler Christopher), the current DiMera heir.

“Stefan is stunned by news about his family,” the spoilers reveal.

If Stefan learns the brother he knew to be dead is alive, he will also be someone Sami will have to do battle with. Unfortunately for her, her initial plans to find EJ and reunite with him for the happily-ever-after ending she knows they deserve will become an even bigger challenge than she thought.

“Days of Our Lives” airs weekdays on NBC.
